Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 404: The Ghostly Saint Hand

"Uncle Xia... is in the Black Moon General Assembly? Right here?" Yun Che was surprised. Half a year ago, after he returned to Floating Cloud City, he went to the Xia family first and learned that Xia Hongyi had already left home to look for Xia Yuanba, who had no news. The servant who stayed at the Xia family told him that when Xia Hongyi was packing up, he took out a black crescent-shaped object... At that time, he suspected that it was something related to the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, and guessed that he might want to find Xia Yuanba through the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce.

Unexpectedly, he actually stayed in this Black Moon Chamber of Commerce.

And this is not the Black Moon branch that is spread all over Tianxuan... but the mythical Black Moon General Assembly!

Those who can stay here are definitely not ordinary people. Obviously, Xia Hongyi's origin with the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce is not simple.

"If you want to see him, I can take you there in person now. I'm sure he will be very happy to see you." Zi Ji said with a smile.

Yun Che's expression became extremely complicated. After a long silence, he slowly sat down and said, "Is Uncle Xia living well here?"

"Whether it's good or not, only he knows. But here, at least everything is stable for him, and he won't be bullied by anyone." Zi Ji said.

Yun Che nodded and said half to himself, "That's good. Knowing that Uncle Xia is safe, I feel relieved... I took Yuanba to Cangfeng Xuanfu and Tianjian Villa. If he had stayed in Xinyue City, the later things would not have happened. Before finding Yuanba, I didn't have the face to see him... Senior Zi, tell me about Yuanba. I know his abilities very well, so how could he alarm half of Shenhuang City?"

"Two years ago, a foreign boy came to Shenhuang City. On the first day after his arrival, and every day, he went to challenge Fight against the famous sects in the city."

"He...challenged the sect?"

"That's right. Unfortunately, his profound strength was too low, and he was easily beaten seriously by the opponent. But the next day, he went to challenge again with injuries all over his body. As a result, of course, he was injured on top of injuries. On the third day, he still went to challenge, and was beaten to death by the opponent out of impatience... Although his profound strength was low, his physique was extremely abnormal. He was seriously injured enough to kill him, but he was still able to stand up the next day and challenge again. There was even one time when his body was He was hit by the opponent and had two huge blood holes, but he still didn't die. At first, people thought he was a madman, but day after day, month after month, no one thought he was a madman anymore. It's not uncommon to see people who are obsessed with pursuing power, but even I have never seen such an obsession. "

Yun Che: "…………"

"He stayed in Shenhuang City for three months. Every day he was seriously injured. There was almost no intact part on his body, but he always dragged his seriously injured body to find opponents that he could never defeat. Among the people he challenged, there must be some impatient or vicious people who wanted to kill him, but no matter how seriously he was injured, he never died. In three months, people's views on him changed from ridicule to shock, until one day three months later, he suddenly disappeared in Shenhuang City, leaving no trace. Today, he should have been forgotten. However, what I can be sure of is that he was not secretly harmed by someone, otherwise he would never escape the eyes of Black Moon. "

Yun Che's mood became extremely complicated. Although Xia Yuanba was extremely tall and looked very oppressive, he was influenced by Xia Hongyi and had an extremely gentle temperament and a simple mind, and he never wanted to fight with others. But the Xia Yuanba described by Zi Ji was an out-and-out madman. He knew very well why Xia Yuanba had changed so drastically...

"... Senior Zi, thank you for telling me this. I'll take care of everything." Yun Che stood up and said.

Zi Ji also stood up and said with a smile: "You're welcome. It's our honor to serve you, Black Moon."

Yun Che knew why Zi Ji was so polite to him. Black Moon Chamber of Commerce has been able to develop to this day, and naturally has its mature way of survival. For those with extremely high talents who may be ranked at the top of Tianxuan in the future, Black Moon will naturally treat them differently, not only providing the most extreme service, but also hoping that the other party will owe him a favor.

“Oh right,” Yun Che suddenly remembered something: “I wonder if Senior Zi has ever heard of the ‘Netherworld Udumbara Flower’?”

The Netherworld Udumbara Flower is one of the three things that Jasmine needs him to obtain within thirty years: a Netherworld Udumbara Flower, three Xuandan of Tyrant Mystic Beast, and seventy kilograms of Purple Vein Divine Crystal.

"The Netherworld Udumbara Flower?" Zi Ji's face showed a thoughtful expression. After a while, he slowly said: "I know this flower. It is an extremely evil and evil thing. It can only grow in extremely dangerous places. It blooms once every 24 years and withers in three days. This flower is so terrible that even if you touch it, just approaching it will cause the body to be invaded by the Netherworld Qi and damage the soul. In the mildest case, you will faint for a long time, and in the worst case, you will become a living dead or even lose your life. Apart from this, I have never heard of any positive value. Why are you looking for this flower?"

"Junior naturally has a special use. If you know where it is, please tell me."

Zi Ji thought for a while and shook his head: "The last record of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower was 1,300 years ago. Since then, there have been no records or legends about the Netherworld Udumbara Flower. There are more and more humans in Tianxuan Continent. The number of humans today is four times that of a thousand years ago. Therefore, the Yang Qi of the entire continent far outweighs the Yin Qi. Perhaps, the Netherworld Udumbara Flower will be forever extinct in Tianxuan Continent."

"...Thank you for telling me, junior, take your leave."

Unexpectedly, he learned some news about Xia Yuanba. Although this made him feel a little heavy, it was still a small comfort... No wonder Xia Yuanba could not be found in Cangfeng. It turned out that after leaving Tianjian Villa, he came to Shenhuang Empire.

Shenhuang Empire, after all, is a place with a profound strength level far higher than Cangfeng. Did he come here to pursue power in extreme sorrow and self-blame...

Little fairy, where are you...

——————————————————

Phoenix Divine Sect.

As the day of the Seven Nations Ranking Tournament was getting closer and closer, Feng Xichen's mood became more and more anxious. The scenes of humiliation that day stimulated his nerves all the time. After finally telling Feng Ximing about Yun Che yesterday, he became even more restless.

Because what he described to Feng Ximing was completely different from the truth a few months ago. Although he was sure that if Yun Che really came to Shenhuang City, the Phoenix Sect would never let him go, he couldn't help but worry that Yun Che would talk about what happened that day in the ranking match. If what happened that day was made public in front of everyone, the mark of shame would not only be engraved in his heart and soul, but also on his face from now on.

The door was pushed open, and a tall figure stepped in with a scorching wave of fire. Feng Xichen turned around in a hurry, and was about to get angry. When he saw the figure coming in, he hurriedly retracted the anger that was about to burst out, and quickly bowed forward: "Your son greets the emperor."

"Get up." Feng Hengkong raised his hand and said straight to the point: "A few months ago, Ximing has told me in detail about your experience in Cangfeng Country. Although you have concealed it until now, it is understandable. I am not here to blame you."

Feng Xichen hurriedly said: "Your son thanks your father for his grace... But, although your father does not blame you, your son feels even more guilty and unwilling."

"Humph!" Feng Hengkong was full of anger: "I didn't expect that a small emperor of Cangfeng would have such a courage! Don't worry, the humiliation you suffered in Cangfeng, I will get it back for you ten thousand times within three years. By then, Cangfeng will be in trouble. Emperor Feng, you can do whatever you want with him. As for that kid named Yun Che... Humph, didn't he threaten to come to participate in the ranking battle? Very good, I will wait and see how he will perform on the field! "

Feng Xichen was half happy and half panicked: "I thank you for your kindness... It's a small matter for me to be humiliated, but the matter of my Phoenix Divine Sect's bloodline is greater than heaven. Why don't you have someone secretly deal with Yun Che before the ranking battle?"

"No need!" Feng Hengkong waved his hand and said with extreme contempt: "A little Cangfeng Xuanzhe is worthy of my Phoenix Divine Sect to secretly target him? It's simply lowering the status of my Phoenix Divine Sect! The Seven Kingdoms Qualifying Tournament has always been a performance of my Phoenix Divine Sect. If there are no jokes and adjustments, it would be very boring! I hope that Yun Che will perform well at that time and don't let me down. "

"Father is right." Feng Xichen bowed his head and said.

"Xichen, what is the result of the theft in Fengyu Palace that I asked you to investigate?" When talking about this, Feng Hengkong's face was obviously depressed.

"Your son has investigated the thief..."

Feng Xichen had just said half a sentence when Feng Hengkong turned around: "Who is it! How dare he steal in my Phoenix Divine Sect!"

The reason for his anger was not only the boldness of this person, but also the shock of the terrifying ability of this thief. His Phoenix Divine Sect was such a place that even a flying insect would be discovered in the first time, let alone an outsider. But this thief sneaked into the Fengyu Palace where various treasures were stored without being noticed by anyone... If he hadn't accidentally triggered the invisible profound formation when stealing things, no one would even know that Fengyu Palace had been sneaked into.

What shocked him even more was that after the thief triggered the profound formation and alerted the masters of the entire sect, he actually left unscathed under the heavy siege of countless Phoenix powerhouses... This was almost impossible for even a true Overlord to do.

“Father, please calm down… In the entire Divine Phoenix Empire, there is only one person who is capable of doing this…” Feng Xichen raised his head and frowned, “Hua Minghai[①].”

“Hua Minghai?” Feng Hengkong’s face was gloomy, and then he quickly reacted: “‘Ghost Shadow Saint Hand’ Hua Minghai!?”

“That’s right!” Feng Xichen nodded: “In the whole world, only this person can do this. Hua Minghai’s profound strength is not outstanding, but his body movements and speed are unparalleled in the world, and he is extremely good at hiding, sneaking, disguising, and mimicking voices. His ability to escape is unmatched. ..."

"No need to say." Feng Hengkong raised his hand: "Of course I have heard of this name. Hua Minghai, known as the 'No. 1 Thief in the World' and the 'Ghostly Hand'! It is said that no matter what this thief steals, he has never failed. Not to mention being caught, no one has even seen his true appearance. Humph... I didn't expect that this thief would be so bold as to provoke my Phoenix Divine Sect! Does he really think that no one in this world can do anything to him! "
